Nucor is a U.S. steel manufacturer that produces sheet, plate, structural, and bar steel, primarily by melting recycled scrap metal in electric arc furnaces. Its main customers are steel service centers, fabricators, and manufacturers across North America. The company also makes downstream steel products (such as joists, rebar, and fasteners) and controls some of its raw material supply. Revenue comes almost entirely from selling steel and steel products, with the steel mills segment generating the bulk of it.
